Resumen del Editor
Survival and Unbroken Spirit
A Civilian Dutch Woman in Europe During World War II
Treasures of Sadness is the story of Corrie's unbroken spirit.
If you love historical fiction, don't miss reading this real life memoir and page-turner: Treasures of Sadness
Treasures of Sadness is a real life account of a woman’s journey that began during World War II. Corrie grew up in an affluent neighborhood in Amersfoort, Holland in the 1940’s. From there she fell in love with a German soldier, rubbed elbows with royalty in Vienna, Austria and ended up in a coal mining town of West Virginia. There, she gave birth to one son and eventually ended up alone in the housing projects of Tennessee. From her journey she was able to take away some of life’s treasures: perseverance, patience, strength, grit, positivity, inner peace, personal growth, and survival.
"It is one thing to have a compelling story to tell. Quite another to put it on to paper so it flows for the reader! In this case, both apply. Open the cover, turn the pages and receive a gift." - Mark Skomp
"An inspirational story of a young woman's struggle for survival during the German occupation of Europe in WWII." - Paul Jolley
"It touches on what comes of humanity when stretched to the breaking point and how different individuals respond to it. There are so many books out there about WWII and the lives of soldiers but very few touch on the every day citizens that are left in it's wake. I myself have read many WWII books but I had never viewed it through the eyes of a citizen the way this book allowed me to do. It is an easy yet powerful read that is hard to put down that allows you to view the best and worst of humanity.” -David Melton
“I learned so much and felt so many emotions reading Treasures of Sadness. It is truly amazing what one person goes through in a lifetime. Corrie's story is inspiring and heartrending. The amount of dedication, devotion, and love she had was so transparent throughout the entire book. She really does have an unbroken spirit. It is one of those books where you start and can't put it down." -Jennifer Gerads

Eight years ago I fell into a secret summer fling with my best friend’s little sister before our lives went in different directions. Now, I’m the grumpy to Juliet’s sunshine on a popular dating podcast we host, and when a wealthy fan gives us a charming coastal cottage as the biggest thank you ever, we head to the town where I grew up to give it a makeover. And find the house has only one bed. Located under a mirrored ceiling.

Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer on the brink of financial ruin when she accepts the job offer of a lifetime. Jeremy Crawford, husband of best-selling author Verity Crawford, has hired Lowen to complete the remaining books in a successful series his injured wife is unable to finish. Lowen arrives at the Crawford home, ready to sort through years of Verity's notes and outlines, hoping to find enough material to get her started. What Lowen doesn't expect to uncover in the chaotic office is an unfinished autobiography Verity never intended for anyone to read.

Iris Nightingale is more than okay. She has her life planned out to a perfect schedule. Work, run, sleep, repeat. She spends her quiet Friday nights sitting alone on a bench in the park, trying to push back the memories that no amount of running can help her escape. But one evening, there’s someone else on her bench - Hunter. Tall, wry and infuriating: everything about him gets under Iris’s skin. Little does she know that he's about to upset more than just her routines...
